As Su Yu left the residential area, he couldn't help but feel a little worried. "Do you think that kid will repay kindness with enmity?"
He was afraid that He Xiuyun would pretend to be friendly in order to save his own life, but would send people to harm his family as soon as he returned to Yangcheng. He was not an honest person, and who knew what he was thinking?
Su Yan dismissed his words, saying, "Brother, you're overthinking it. What he did might not have been entirely aboveboard, but his character isn't that bad."
Who doesn't want to live and earn money honestly? But sometimes reality and ideals are opposite.
Anyway, she didn't think He Xiuyun was a bad person.
Su Yu sneered and said irritably, "You're such a carefree girl! You dare to bring just anyone home. When my vacation ends, you better behave yourself, you hear?"
"Oh dear, it won't be long before our whole family moves to Beijing. Once we're there, it'll be your territory. Who will dare to hurt us under your nose then? Don't you agree?"
Besides, He Xiuyun is in Guangzhou, which is a long way away from us. Unless it's intentional, it's unlikely we'll run into each other again. So don't worry."
Su Yu thought his sister was unusually bold.
Which young woman is like her, always going on long trips or bringing home men of dubious origin? It's truly a headache.
But what can you do when she's your own sister?
Although Su Yu verbally reprimanded Su Yan, he still indulged her greatly.
When I got home, Grandma had just finished cooking.
During the meal, Li Juan said, "I've handed over all the business at the shop to Yongcheng. I won't be going tomorrow. I plan to come back once a month to check on the shop's situation."
It was her first store, after all, and she was very reluctant to part with it.
Su Yan nodded, "I'll have my brother buy you a train ticket back then."
She discovered that her mother was a worrier, so she wouldn't stop her from running around, lest she overthink things or focus her attention on things she shouldn't.
"Mom, I'll ask a friend to buy train tickets for me tomorrow. Pack your bags, we'll be leaving the day after tomorrow," Su Yu said.
Li Juan and her grandparents were quite reluctant to leave the place where they had lived for most of their lives.
Grandpa Li stammered, "How about we go back to the village tomorrow? We just built a new house, we should go back and take a look, otherwise we don't know when we'll be able to come back next time."
After he finished speaking, he looked at his wife.
Grandma Li was silent for a few seconds, then said, "Let's go back and take a look."
If it weren't for Hu Zi, she wouldn't want to leave Anping Town. No matter how good or bad the place is, it's the place where she's lived for decades, and she has deep feelings for it. In addition, she's getting older and has more and more things to think about.
Su Yan teased, "Grandpa and Grandma, don't be so sad. If you want to come back, you can come back and stay for a while anytime. I'll let Xiao Rou come with you, and she can help take care of Hu Zi."
Upon hearing this, Grandma Li immediately said, "How can that be? Xiao Rou was originally your bodyguard. Yangcheng is a big place, so she should stay with you. Your grandfather and I can keep an eye on Hu Zi."
She really didn't want to cause Su Yan too much trouble. When they went to Beijing, she would have to look for a branch store and would be very busy.
Su Yan knew what her grandmother was thinking without even having to guess, so she simply said, "Let's talk about this when we get to Beijing. Let's eat first."
Seeing that Su Yan was engrossed in eating and clearly unwilling to continue the conversation, Granny Li finally shut up.
After a long day, Su Yan felt a bit tired, so she took a shower and went back to bed.
I was looking at the recipe for a while when the cell phone next to me suddenly rang.
She immediately sat up, picked up her cell phone, glanced at it—it was an unfamiliar number—and answered, holding it to her ear, "Who is this?"
“It’s me.” Jiang Jingxing’s deep voice carried a faint smile. “This is my phone number. Save it.”
Su Yan pulled open her hand and glanced at the numbers on the mobile phone, exclaiming in surprise, "You bought a mobile phone?"
Jiang Jingxing was still in his office on the other end of the phone. Hearing the girl's clear and lively voice, his mood brightened involuntarily. He explained, "I've always had it. I felt it wouldn't be good to take it out and use it, so I've just kept it at home."
After all, with his salary, it was really difficult to buy a mobile phone. If he took it out to use, people would inevitably have some doubts. In addition, he had a landline phone, and over time he almost forgot that he even had a mobile phone.
Su Yan raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile, "So if you take it out now, it won't be affected?"
"Commander Jiang may not be able to afford it, but the Jiang family can."
Okay.
Su Yan rolled over on the bed and laughed, "Where are you now? Shouldn't you be busy after just finishing a mission?"
The man glanced at the pile of documents on the table, raised his hand to pinch the bridge of his nose, and said, "I'm quite busy, still in the office."
He is indeed not good at chatting, and it's easy for conversations to fall flat when you talk to him.
If another girl were dating him, she might think he didn't like her.
Su Yan muttered to herself, but said aloud, "Aren't you tired?"
"I was a little tired, but hearing your voice made me feel much better."
After pausing, Jiang Jingxing added, "Ayan, I miss you."
The man's voice when he said he missed her was gentle and tender, filled with endless doting and affection, making her unable to resist and easily falling into this sweet vortex.
Su Yan touched her chest and felt her heart beating very fast. Her body temperature was gradually rising, and she felt like she was in a steamer.
When she came to her senses, she belatedly realized that she had actually become shy because of a man's short sentence, and couldn't help but curse herself in her heart for being so spineless!
She pouted, feigning doubt, and asked, "Really? Then why didn't I feel it? Is it because you haven't thought about me deeply enough?!"
The clever Commander Jiang immediately realized that the girl was deliberately teasing him, but he didn't call her out on it.
He narrowed his long, narrow eyes and said meaningfully, "Why don't you come to Beijing? Then you'll know just how much I miss you. Words are too pale; I'd rather express my longing for you with concrete actions."
Su Yan spat and cursed, "You scoundrel!"
She didn't want to flirt over the phone, and she couldn't outmaneuver Commander Jiang, an old hand, so she immediately changed the subject, "I've agreed to become Mr. Jue's last disciple. I also told him about Hu Zi's situation, and he agreed to help me treat Hu Zi."
To prevent him from discovering my true purpose, I even played the victim in front of him; otherwise, I worried he would think I only agreed to become his last disciple because of Tiger.
Jiang Jingxing comforted her, "Even if you tell Elder Jue openly and honestly, he won't think much of it. On the contrary, he will be very happy, since you have agreed to be his last disciple. Ayan, you don't need to feel guilty."
